Re: What have you just bought?
A folding bike!
Problem: between my bus stop and my workplace there's a little matter of a walk of 0.6 miles. I've gotten sick and bloody tired of this after 3+ years of it, but I can't face the 10+ miles of cycling to work...mostly uphill. My regular bike can't be taken on a bus, of course.
Solution: a folding bike can, though! I got one today from Argos, £130 - I think it'll do the job. Plus if I can manage to shave two or three minutes off my (former) walking time I can get a slightly earlier bus - they're every 10 mins (allegedly!), I finish at 07:30 and I can't quite walk fast enough to get the 07:36 bus...especially not after several hours' heavy labour.
Now I won't be walking!

@ Mr LM <<big slap>> I forgot you were back
I want to own, and drive, a 300SL Gullwing coupe. I was given a ride in one many years ago and always promised myself one of my own. Not happened yet. <<<<sigh>>>> On a realistic note though I guess your car will be easier to get out of in a supermarket car park.

Fuel efficiency is good for diesels, but yeah, you're destroying the world with each drive. (I have a diesel)

I didnt think anyone bought diesels anymore because of the taxation.

It's not actually as bad as you might think, its emissions are lower than the 2.5l 5cyl turbochardged petrol that it's replacing (non suv)
